Vieux-Port harbour basin and quayside in Rome

Shore Excursion

Evening Rome Tour

From production — Rome

Duration: Half day to full dayPace: ModerateBest for: Cruise passengers planning time ashore

Evening Rome for late-departure ships — lit fountains, aperitivo and night tours from Civitavecchia.

Rome after dark — for ships departing 20:00 or later.

When your ship sails after 20:00, standard afternoon-return tours waste Rome's most magical hours — this excursion schedules centro visits as daylight fades.

Trevi and Pantheon lit at night, Trastevere aperitivo and Colosseum exterior floodlights — memorable without midday heat.

Confirm your departure time before booking — useless on 17:00 sailings.

Operator must demonstrate prior late-return track record to Civitavecchia.

Allow 75–80 minutes each way from Civitavecchia cruise terminal. Book morning timed entries where required and confirm your ship's all-aboard time before leaving port. Reputable operators maintain 60–90 minute return buffers.

Civitavecchia berthing and meeting points vary by ship and call. Confirm the meeting point on your voucher and allow a sensible return buffer to the ship — Rome is about 70 km inland.
